Title:
OPTICAL AMPLITUDE MODULATING SYSTEM CAPABLE OF REMOVING HIGH-ORDER COMPONENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/026759
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A DSB-SC system in which the tertiary component is suppressed. IN a DSB-SC modulating system (1) of a first aspect, a third harmonic signal generating section (17) generates an electric signal (3fm) having a frequency which is three times the frequency of a fundamental signal (fm), a phase adjusting section (18) adjusts the difference between the phases of the fundamental signal (fm) and an electric signal (3fm) having a frequency which is three times the frequency of the fundamental signal, and a signal intensity adjusting section (19) adjusts the intensity of the electric signal (3fm). As a modulating signal, the signal having a frequency 3fm is adjusted so that the phase of the primary component (f0±3fm) may be opposite to that of the tertiary component (f0±3fm) generated when a signal of fm is applied as a modulating signal and that the intensity of the primary component (f0±3fm) may be approximately equal to that of the tertiary component (f0±3fm). Therefore, they suppress each other, and DSB-SC modulation having a high extinction ratio can be achieved.
